    Nez : une belle canne végétale qui vient s’entrecroiser avec la vanille, le flan au caramel, de légères notes de réglisse ou d’anis peut-être. Une certaine fraicheur se dégage, de la menthe ? En tout cas quelques notes médicinales sont également de la partie après aération. Plutot complet ce nez. En bouche, une belle sucrosité, le retour du flan à la vanille, des notes florales, d’agrumes, et d’oranges. Ca glisse tout seul, on se laisse transporter. Finale un peu plus simple, entre notes florales et végétales. Un bon cru.

    Very alcoholic. It comes across like a fruit brandy. Not a good rum for me, but an unfinished product.

    La base est bonne, mais c est dommage que lalcool de ce BDF ne soit pas assez bien intégré. Du coup au nez c est assez fermé par l alcool .on a du caramel/herbe, mais aussi un contraste vinaigré. En bouche l alcool reste présent et donne de la vivacité. Il y a du caramel au beurre, foin et du minéral. Finale en deux temps de la douceur caramel/herbe qui évolue en zeste d orange/minéral.

    Le nez nous frappe par sa puissance alcoolique. Normal, il chiffre à 59,7%. Mais il pique pas mal les bulbes olfactifs. On sent très nettement l'eau de vie et une forte puissance éthylique. On sent du massepain et il y a beaucoup de fraîcheur herbacée, avec cette canne corsée et cette odeur d'herbes coupées. Un peu de caramel pointe le bout de son nez. La bouche amène beaucoup d'oléagineux : de la noix de Grenoble, amande amère. Le tout dans cet alcool mal intégré. On retrouve ces accents très végétaux : du foin, de l'herbe coupée, avec quelques épices de cuisine. Franchement pas terrible. La finale est assez longue sur cette noix et un désagréable goût de carton. Je n'ai pas pris beaucoup de plaisir avec ce rhum.
